Thread: Need advice how to show more earnings?

    Default Need advice how to show more earnings?

    Wonder if someone can help?

    I have a small business. I am an s-corp and only earn a check of $3000.00/month take home pay. I desperately need to take a home equity loan and my bank says I need to earn $27,000 more per year to be are to get this loan. I thought of maybe, claiming $27,000 extra income on my taxes and paying the income taxes on that amount? Does anyone know how much approximate taxes I would have to pay on this extra claimed income. Also, is this legal? I definately would like to go about this legally. Maybe someone would have another idea for me?

    Thanks in advance,
    Max

    What you're trying to do would be illegal.

    Try increasing your revenues the $27K.

    I have to agree with Evan. The only legal way to show more income is to earn more income. The best thing I could think of that I think would be legal is to not take any deductions and count 100% of your revenue as income. I'm assuming that's legal.

    The only thing worse than messing with the drug cartels is messing with the IRS. Keep it legal!

    i can help you with ways to show 'less' earnings for a particular year, but not 'more'

    make more sales is the only way i know of....work for cost and get a few new customers $27,000 worth

    then raise their prices next year and lose every one of them
